1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundEmergency renal artery embolization (RAE) is a useful method in treating renal trauma and bleeding renal tumors. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of emergency RAE, and factors associated with RAE failure.

methodsThis retrospective study included patients treated with emergency RAE for acute renal hemorrhage between 1 January 2009 and 31 October 2019 in Srinagarind Hospital. The embolization was performed using coils, glues, and/or gel foams. Factors associated with unsuccessful outcomes were analyzed using univariate and multivariate regression analyses.

resultsA total of 94 patients were treated at the center during the study period with the clinical success rate of 91.5%. The most common cause of acute renal hemorrhage was iatrogenic injury (76.5%). Factors associated with unsuccessful RAE according to multivariate analyses were hypertension (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 24.2) and ruptured tumor/aneurysm (AOR 26.8).

conclusionRAE is an effective procedure for acute renal hemorrhage. Hypertension and ruptured tumor/aneurysm were negative predictors for success.
